"Hats off to the super tramps in a gloriously groundbreaking Godot."
The Independent
Samuel Beckett’s Waiting for Godot is one of the most significant English language plays of the 20th century. The play gently and intelligently speaks about what it is to be human. Its brilliance lies in its subtlety; it is endlessly elusive and yet universal.
Two homeless men, Vladimir and Estragon, wait on a bare road with a single tree.
Over two days they argue, get bored, clown around, repeat themselves, contemplate death and wait. They are waiting for the one who never comes. They are Waiting for Godot.
For the first time in the UK, Talawa Theatre Company and West Yorkshire Playhouse present an all black cast of fine British actors, directed by Ian Brown, whose roots reflect the complexity of British history, in this ground-breaking production of one of the 20th century's finest plays.
"..a great example of what we go to the theatre for."
What's On Stage
"The dishevelled, disheartened duo of Patrick Robinson and Jeffery Kissoon bring plenty of bumbling charm and humour to Estragon and Vladimir"
